Octopus Card

This may seem like a silly card to give a 16 year old for her birthday!  However, her party was at the pool and her all time favorite movie is The Little Mermaid!  Her mom decided to make the party more adultish, by making it at under the sea party.  So here we have the octopus.  Sometimes I really like quilling, it's work but they turn out pretty cute.  The little turd also got a car from grandma and grandpa.  So fun.

Skunk

I was looking through this cartridge, and I really liked the skunk.  Some people might get offended by getting a skunk card.  So, I had to be careful who I chose to make it for.  I chose my niece~ she's tough, and knows that I love her dearly!  So here is your cute lil skunk bday card.
Happy Birthday JANA!

Still Kickin'

I hope my mom doesn't get offended that I chose a donkey theme for her birthday this year.  I loved the card in this case first.  Decided it was for my mom, then went looking for a cake.  A little backwards for me.  But whatever works right!!! I love you mom, hope you have a great birthday, and I'm glad you're still kickin'  stay tuned for matching cake!

Gray Hare

This is for Paul, one of Jason's best friends.  He is also in Wyoming.  Got tease him about his age too.  Only because he is slightly older than I am.  I like the monochromatic look on this card,  And as always love the copic look.  I had a problem with this card though, I went to color it and I was all out of C3, thank goodness I had a coupon for Michaels, because copics at that store are just too expensive!

Hedgehog

I have always had a thing for hedgehogs. 

 I was looking through the "Live Simply" cartridge, and noticed this guy.

 I am not sure who he is going to be for just yet. Just that I needed to make it. LOL ;)
Actually, It's going to be for my Riley.  Jason's daughter.
She's just cute enough to appreciate it.

Chicken Birthday Card

My sons first job is at Kentucky Fried Chicken.  I googled a cake to make for him. I will make something like it...... When I was cleaning out my stamp closet, I ran across this set.  How cute will this be to make a chicken theme birthday!  So I started with the card!  It will be so funny to see the look on his face, when he sees all the birthday decorations. Poor kid!  It's a good thing he has a great sense of humor.

Birthday Hedgehog

 Yep, another coloring page.  He is just so cute, I had to have him.  A little girl I tend picked it out, but then said she wasn't going to color her hedgehog, until I colored mine.  She wants to color it the same way I do mine.  That is so sweet. I decided it would be perfect for Sam.  Because they are both so stinkin' cute!

Cute Lil' Froggie

I bought this stamp set over a year ago. I think I may have used it the first day........ I wanted to enlarge it. So I stamped the image, then used my copy machine to make it bigger.  When I completed the card I immediately thought of Jason's sister Rachael.  I hope you enjoy your card Rachael!  HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

The frog has such a cute little face

I like adding a button on top of the ribbon.  Looks like a flower kind of.

You can see the big difference after I enlarged it.

Hope your day is as happy, as this little froggie makes me!
